Hyacinth Bennett, the former leader of the National Democratic Movement (NDM), has taken aim at a group of Christians who have volunteered to clean up Kingston in preparation for the impending Creator of White Elephants, the ICC Cricket World Cup.
She seems to think that, because they did nothing prior, they are "hypocrites and Pharisees".
I'm almost tempted to agree with her, but will withhold judgement until the group, who calls themselves HOPE 2007, unveils its plans (if they have any) for cleanup activities on a continuing basis after the World Cup. I think that's only fair since, after all, they're out on the streets cleaning up and not standing in a church calling people names.

Its interesting that she would use such harsh comments and cast the first stone rather than remember that she was also twiddling her thumbs while a few were trying to make a positive difference.The only thing is that we don't know what the motivation was but the effort was appreciated. I am quite sure that during her campaigning days she would make her appearance on labour day for one day projects....hmmm why she never stay consistent after labour day and why she never start before labour day....same thing different day.
